Let's take an example: on a 32bit system, call
   _PyString_Resize(&s, 0x7ffffff8)
Then PyStringObject_SIZE + newsize is something like -0x7ffffff8 (yes, it wraps around and is a negative number)
But when cast to an unsigned size_t (because that's what PyObject_REALLOC declares as parameter), it becomes 0x80000008, which is correct even if it is very likely to fail.
Did you experience something different?
